Voting Now Open for the 2023 ARIN Elections

Posted: Thursday, 19 October 2023

Eligible Voting Contacts from General Members in Good Standing may now cast their organization’s online ballots in the 2023 ARIN Elections to fill four seats on the Board of Trustees and seven seats on the Advisory Council (AC). Voting is open now through 7:00 PM ET, Friday, 27 October.

Voting Contacts may cast their ballot by logging in to ARIN Online and selecting the “Vote Now” link in the dashboard. Step-by-step instructions are available on our website.

Research the Candidates

A great place to get started is to read our recent blog post, “Five Simple Steps to Get You Ready for ARIN Elections.”

A downloadable compilation of candidate biographies and questionnaire responses is available on our website. Videos of the candidates’ prerecorded speeches presented at ARIN 52 will be posted shortly on the Election HQ page and Statements of Support site.

All candidates were subscribed to the General Members Mailing List for the duration of the election period to answer questions from the voting community. We encourage you to join the mailing list as well to keep informed of future ARIN Election activity.

Voting Information

If you are the Voting Contact for an eligible General Member, voting is as simple as logging in to ARIN Online and following the “Vote Now” link in your dashboard. If you are not the Voting Contact, but your organization is eligible to participate in the election, please encourage your Voting Contact to vote. You can find information on how to view your voting contact on our website.

Eligibility for this election was determined per the published deadline of 4 September 2023 at 5:00 PM ET. General Members in Good Standing with a designated Voting Contact as of that time are eligible to participate. Eligible organizations could update their Voting Contact after the Voting Eligibility deadline up until 12 October.

Participation in ARIN Elections is a requirement to maintain General Membership. Organizations that have not voted in the past three elections after the 2023 ARIN Elections will transition to Service Members.

Results for the 2023 ARIN Elections will be announced no later than Friday, 3 November 2023.
